Spaghetti western but on Mars.
Like the Knights of Cydonia music video.
But with more explosions.

A mecha space opera/war drama 100%. Of the real robot type. "But haven't we had enough of it during anime history?". No

Medieval Middle-Earth inspired fantasy, drama and tragedy.

Isekai with no romance or harem (with mc) and only tasteful fanservice. 
MC isn't op, doesn't always win but has amazing luck. 
Brutal action with over the top comedy that doesn't overshadow the serious plot
A smart villain and memorable side characters
MC walks the line of good/bad
Adventure, like actual traveling around
With at least 3 plot twist

So... Fantasy Isekai, Action adventure, Comedy, and Gore? 
Closest I can think of would be if 'Goblin Slayer', 'Rising of the Shield Hero', and 'Log Horizon' had a child.

It would be an Epic Fantasy/Mystery set in a semi-victorian 19th-century world. It would have a huge cast but mainly follow a small group of people.
It would tackle the themes of companionship, living in the moment, and living up to expectations.
It would be rather long, but not padded out, although it would have slower pacing.
It would have magic, with powers like time, space and plot manipulation.

Oh wow, this is just the book I'm writing, silly me

I would certainly write some work with the Romance, Drama and Psychological genres involved. Something like Solanin or Oyasumi Punpun. Perhaps, I would add some others that I like a lot, like Sci-Fi, or else some element of Slice of Life, but they are not fixed like the three I mentioned. The demography? Well, I would write a light novel, but assuming it's a manga, certainly a Seinen. Oh, and it would probably be an Adult Cast work.

Action with elements of romance in a modernish-fantasy setting. Pretty much the same thing as the game I have in my head that I want to make lol.

Probably an isekai really similar to the eminence in the shadow, i really like the idea on which it is based on. Especially the harem he have, it's not intrusive and it doesn't bother the show that much. It also is actually useful unlike usual ones.

Tbh I think most stuff I write is ill-suited for this medium and wouldn't be popular with anime fans? 😅 It's mostly a lot of Western fantasy/supernatural stuff.

I think the ones that would work are the SciFi ones, since I usually have teen protags for those and the stories work more on a global scale and lean into anime tropes, in part due to me usually writing these for the honeyfeed contests x)

Based on what i indeed write has short stories the best ones which were praised the most by my beta readers were fantasy or sci fi which isnt too surprising since that is what i enjoy the most as genre. Mostly dark fantasy and cyperpunk or post apo if i'm going to be more precise with subgenres. It would probably has lot of dark or sarcastic humor, kind of weirdo/marginal main characters that tends to be pretty badly matched couple or team that somehow still works well together, and universe were my love of metal music tends to show a lot.
